Okay, oh my gosh. These mf and elves have taken
our job. We got here in the elves were positioned
in front of the microphones. We start the show, and
then they take over the show. The odd thing about
this whole thing is I'm driving in today listening to

(00:50):
ninety eight seven The Woody Show, and they're talking about
being fired. And they said, if you've worked in radio
for five minutes, you've been fired. Most people have been
fired three times you work in radio for any period
of time. And I'm thinking, I guess this new year.

Speaker 2 (01:07):

Well, I started as a teenager. Oh right, it's a
true story. I did start radio as a teenager. But
I've never been fired, and so I'm like, oh man,

Speaker 2 (04:28):
They also have drugs, so they can probably go. They
did have drugs drug yesterday, were tripping on skittles.

Speaker 1 (04:34):
How come we lost our jobs to people who are
doing lines in the workplace.

Speaker 4 (04:40):
I hear it's trending again, cocaine is just doing it
in the workplace being deener.

Speaker 2 (04:47):
We wrote the book on that.

Speaker 1 (04:49):
Let me rewind to COVID when we were walking around
here with well, we don't need to get into all
the stuff.

Speaker 4 (04:57):
We didn't have any cocaine ever, just to be you're well,
it was like and coke.

Speaker 2 (05:05):
There was a lot of rotten at one point.

Speaker 1 (05:06):
And cola well to our credit, Yeah, we had had
a rum company here that left us hopeous amounts of rum.

Speaker 2 (05:15):
What company, that doesn't matter. It was delicious. Give us
more rum.

Speaker 1 (05:21):
I don't want to bring it up in case they
send it to us because it was delicious.

Speaker 2 (05:25):
It was really, really good. It started with a bee.
I know what it is. It's raining. It's raining really hard.

Speaker 4 (05:32):
In some areas, traffic was an ab solute nightmare.

Speaker 1 (05:37):
Well, you had the jack knife big rig two.

Speaker 2 (05:40):
I had one on one side of freeway and one.

Speaker 1 (05:43):
I had a twenty minute drive to work. Nobody was here.

Speaker 2 (05:46):
Good it was. But the rain did it wake you
up like it did?

Speaker 1 (05:50):
It was really morning, it was really strong.

Speaker 2 (05:53):
So this will continue throughout the day.

Speaker 4 (05:55):
We'll obviously bring you updates as we get anything significant.
There will be a lot of eas notifications as well,
So if the show gets interrupted, it's for a good reason.

Speaker 1 (06:05):
Ponzie and Sprinkles couldn't do weather coverage, could they?

Speaker 5 (06:08):
You can't.

Speaker 2 (06:09):
How are they going to do that? I don't know.

Speaker 1 (06:10):
Well, you can't what you can't? I was going to
were going to say, you can't make a hook or
a lady.

Speaker 2 (06:15):
Or something like that. You can't, you can't what not?
On Christmas Eve?

Speaker 1 (06:21):
Oh, by the way, the show's coming up later. By
the way, Oh yeah, Christmas Carol is coming up later. Yep,
that's gonna be fun times.

Speaker 4 (06:27):
We've corralled all of the personalities finally, and uh.

Speaker 1 (06:31):
I don't know how, Like this room is not big
enough for the personalities, like the stars that we have
in this production. We have actual working actresses in this production.
And then we have like our shining star Amy King,
our sparkling star Deborah mark Our, Thestbion star Michael Monks,

(06:53):
all the people that requirelation. Well, yeah, you know, did
you get the right for those people? Like I think
Deborah's only grain m and ms Amy is only sugar cookies.

Speaker 2 (07:07):
Heather's still working on her rider, her contract.

Speaker 1 (07:09):
Heather is like the most famous actress yeah, I know,
in the least, the least trouble, the least high maintenance.

Speaker 2 (07:17):
Speaking of which.

Speaker 6 (07:20):
You're listening to Gary and Shannon on demand from KFI
AM six forty.

Speaker 1 (07:26):
Your wife and Michelle and Ritchie and almerget.

Speaker 2 (07:30):
Gold stars for this elf fiasco.

Speaker 1 (07:33):
We've been living with her, just hanging off my microphone
like I want a Christmas hussy.

Speaker 4 (07:39):
Her little shoes have stayed on the entire time course
they have. Girl always prioritizes her shoes.

Speaker 1 (07:46):
That's right.

Speaker 4 (07:47):
The footwear, Well, it is going to rain. It's going
to continue to rain through the day today. It looks
like some of the heaviest stuff is now coming down.
Mike Wafford is joining us from the National Weather Service,
and clearly, Mike, this is going to be arguably the
the heaviest rainfall we've seen on a Christmas Christmas Eve
in decades.

Speaker 5 (08:07):
That's that's very true. We've going back at least fifty years,
we haven't had this much rain on Christmas.

Speaker 1 (08:15):
So, like, what is this two to seven inches? Is
that I'm assuming that just varies from area to area,
like the foothills probably get more than the valley or
something like that, Or is it or am I completely wrong?

Speaker 5 (08:32):
No, you're ere correct. The upslope areas and mountains are
definitely going to get the heaviest amount. We've already seen
at least in Ventura County upwards of seven to eight
inches of rain up in the mountains. Down at the
lower elevations there, we're seeing upwards of three to four
inches of rain, and even in the western part of
the San Frondo Valley we're up close to three inches.

(08:53):
You know, we're looking at the radar now and we're
seeing rain, heavier rain coming into the southern part of
LA So that's going to be under the gun here
very shortly. We've had numerous reports of flooding, significant flooding
on roadways. We've got the Ventura River now that's going
to reaching be reaching flood levels very shortly. That will

(09:16):
be likely flooding parts of the RV park there. And
we've had reports about flooding and the I five over
the Grapevine. So it's just a really dangerous situation out there,
and it's going to get worse at the day os. Ok.

Speaker 1 (09:29):
Yeah, when is the worst of the worst, would you say?

Speaker 5 (09:34):
Yeah? So for for a Venture and Ventura County, we've
we've been going through the worst of it this morning,
but we're expecting that to be moving into La County
here shortly and through at least, you know, five or
six o'clock today, we're expecting the worst of it there.

Speaker 4 (09:50):
We had a significant storm roll through right before Thanksgiving
and gave us a plenty of rain, but we really
haven't seen anything between then and now.

Speaker 2 (10:00):
Does this is this good or bad?

Speaker 4 (10:02):
I mean, the fact that we've had an opportunity for
that rain to soak in and then a dumping a
bunch more of it. Now, does that cause particular consternation
for you when it comes to the burn areas that
we're worried about.

Speaker 5 (10:16):
Yeah, the drying out part is good, but the problem
is we've had a lot of build up of debris
over on the roadways during that time, and of course
we had a big squall line come through earlier in
Ventura County. We had gusts to eighty miles per hour.
So there's a lot of debris on the roads, of course,
and a lot of you know, ponding of water. So

(10:37):
it's really dangerous on the roads right now, and it's
just going to get worse as we go through the day.

Speaker 1 (10:41):
Do you have to work on Christmas?

Speaker 5 (10:43):
Mike, I do, yes, part of the part of the job.

Speaker 2 (10:49):
And what's that.

Speaker 1 (10:50):
Do you work every Christmas? No?

Speaker 5 (10:54):
We kind of trade off. But it's not bad.

Speaker 2 (10:58):
If you had said if you had said yes, I
would have accused you of being Santa Claus every Christmas. Yeah,
he's like, yeah, no, fools.

Speaker 5 (11:11):
We trade off. We we we we we all get
our time. So it's good.

Speaker 1 (11:16):
That's very nice. It's nice to work with a group
of people where you know, it's like, okay, well I'll
do Thanksgiving, you do Christmas, Okay, I'll do New Year's
Eve kind of thing.

Speaker 5 (11:25):
Yeah, we all get we all get our time off
on the holidays. So it's it's all good.

Speaker 1 (11:30):
Is there anyone at the Weather Service who's like, no,
I have to have all of those off and you
know what, and you're just like, ah, there goes Sandy again.
Sandy won't work any of the holidays.

Speaker 5 (11:41):
We we all look out for ourselves and we we
we all give our time and it's all, it's all
and it's all in good, all good fun.

Speaker 4 (11:50):
Well, thanks for having fun with us, Mike. Mike Wafford
from the National Weather Service Merry Christmas.

Speaker 5 (11:56):
Merry Christmas to you. Thank you.

Speaker 4 (11:57):
We will check in with National Weather Shore if we
need to as things go through the day. As he
mentioned though, it looks like some of this stuff this
afternoon is going to be the heaviest rainfall. There was
also a very slight but a chance for tornado. They said,
I think it's about a two percent.

Speaker 1 (12:14):
It's of a tornado and Long Beach.

Speaker 2 (12:16):
But how often you know it's.

Speaker 1 (12:18):
Usually in Long Beach and it's maybe once every other year,
baby tornado. You basically are naked today.

Speaker 2 (12:27):
Well, you're wearing a shirt.

Speaker 1 (12:29):
You're wearing a T shirt. Which is it's.

Speaker 2 (12:32):
Warmer in here than it's been in two decades?

Speaker 1 (12:35):
Is it warmer in here? Or is it just your
in laws got to town? Second cup of coffee, A
second cup of coffee.

Speaker 2 (12:41):
Lot going on.

Speaker 4 (12:42):
You've had a lot of sugar, probably I haven't had
any sugar yet today.

Speaker 2 (12:45):
Yeah, but yesterday was a big sugar day.

Speaker 1 (12:47):
You got into it.

Speaker 2 (12:48):
That's why I did have funny dreams.

Speaker 1 (12:50):
I brought cinnamon rolls, you guys, little mini cinnamonaled danishes.
So I was gonna make cinnamon rolls this morning?

Speaker 2 (12:58):
Were you?

Speaker 1 (12:58):
And then I was like, no, what, don't do it
because we're gonna have the cookies from Shannon Hoffman and
I don't want to give everyone diabetes, but you made
the right choice and I will be eating one of
those cinnamon.

Speaker 4 (13:14):
Rolls, yes, instead of my type Shannon diabetes.

Speaker 6 (13:20):
You're listening to Gary and Shannon on demand from KFI
AM six forty.

Speaker 1 (13:26):
It feels so christmasy in here. We walked in. It's
usually you know, blue sky's sunny, Sky's burbank and it's
it's the rain droplets are all over the window. It's
it's foggy. It's stormy outside, but not too much. We've
got the Christmas tree in here, and it's classically decorated,
unlike some of the previous years when it looked like,

(13:48):
I don't know, looks like Christmas in the abbey blew
up on it or something. But here it is classic.

Speaker 2 (13:54):
It is beautiful. The elves are here.

Speaker 1 (13:56):
We've got these these lights decorating the microphone.

Speaker 2 (14:00):
There was a funny thing on Saturday Night Live last weekend.

Speaker 1 (14:03):
Oh tell me about it. I like a funny thing.

Speaker 4 (14:05):
They did an ELF on the Shelf support group which
was funny. People all all sitting around the north pole
talking about the the horrors that they've had to endure
and the things that they've had to do.

Speaker 2 (14:17):
Oh yes, oh yeah yeah.

Speaker 4 (14:22):
And then they said, uh, don't don't an elf can't
think uh negative thoughts or dirty thoughts or something like that,
or else they'll they'll blow up and become confetti or
something like that. So one of the elves shows this
very compromising, uh simulated sex act that he was forced
to perform, and one of the other elves goes, ah,

(14:45):
I think I know what that is, and I like it,
And then pow explodes because of the storm. By the way, Uh,
Disneyland and California Adventure closing early today.

Speaker 2 (14:57):
You don't see that very often.

Speaker 4 (14:58):
They're going to close an hour early, and and Knotsberry
Farm and six Flags are closed completely to you.

Speaker 1 (15:03):
Yeah, I understand that.

Speaker 4 (15:04):
What an If you love a theme park and you
love going during the rain, more power to you.

Speaker 2 (15:12):
I could think of it.

Speaker 1 (15:13):
I don't know anybody who's like, I love going to
theme parks in the rain.

Speaker 2 (15:18):
Well there, I know. I bet you're right. I bet you.

Speaker 4 (15:20):
Later on, we are doing a Christmas Carol. It's a
this year's version of a Christmas Carol with a bunch
of people from the show and voices that you hear
and voices that you know. However, we're already getting negative reviews.

Speaker 7 (15:35):
Hey guys, I always wondering if there was a charity
that you guys are involved with that I could donate
some money to if you guys don't do the Christmas
Carol judgement calling the talent there and I would feel
it's gonna screw up my Christmas and I'm already hungover. Anyway,
Just just mention it and I'll donate a couple of

(15:56):
bucks here, and just don't do the Christmas thing you
guys are going to do.

Speaker 1 (16:00):
I love the Edd, just don't do that Christmas thing

like he's in that place.

Speaker 2 (16:36):
He's been through some stuff already. Yeah, it's too bad.

Speaker 1 (16:40):
Does anybody else want to do like, does anybody else

Speaker 2 (17:07):
The internet, creative in my own I don't.

Speaker 4 (17:09):
Mean graphic, but but but clearly meant to be funny,

Really Yeah, Okay, I.

Speaker 1 (17:33):
Like the hockey, I like the competition. I like the
slow burn like attraction thing.

Speaker 4 (17:38):
I've never watched, but but I like Choresy's version of hockey.

Speaker 2 (17:42):
I don't know if i'd like it wouldn't be for you.

Speaker 1 (17:46):
If it was uh not two dudes. Not that I'm
saying you don't want to see two dudes, but I'm
just saying, like, if it was a rome, it's a romance, so.

Speaker 2 (17:54):
Like it wouldn't be your lane anyway.

Speaker 1 (17:57):
It's like for people like myself who are Deborah who
like like those romance you know, cheesy things, Yeah, with
a little sex in them, that's what it is. It's
not your thing anyway, even if it wasn't two dudes.

Speaker 4 (18:08):
What was the name of what's the name of the
movie where she was trying to teach the hockey player
how to cutting edge, cutting edge?

Speaker 2 (18:15):
Toto peek Ok, that's what. God, what a great movie.

Speaker 1 (18:20):
Honestly, what do they call that move at the end?

Speaker 6 (18:25):
Oh?

Speaker 1 (18:26):
What is it? Thisvenko?

Speaker 6 (18:27):
This?

Speaker 1 (18:28):
Yeahlenco something Russian?

Speaker 2 (18:32):
Something Russian?

Speaker 1 (18:34):
What a great and it holds up to as of
right Tenko, the Pamchamchenko.

Speaker 2 (18:40):
We're not going to do the Pamchaco.

Speaker 1 (18:42):
We're taking the Pamchaco out. Why it's a whole thing
as of right now, let's do center stage next.

Speaker 4 (18:50):
California power outages right now, one hundred and thirty five
thousand people without power in the state. Santa Clara County
actually has the most at almost thirty thousand. LA has
about twenty thousand people without power, including It's got twenty
and seventy five people who don't matter, and one Deborah Mark,
does not have power.

Speaker 1 (19:09):
Deborah Mark looks. Oh, she always looks beautiful. She looks
so beautiful today for having no power. I my power
goes out in the morning. I come in here like
a wet dog. You know. She comes in here like
a like a supermodel. She looks pretty glamorous today.

Speaker 2 (19:27):
I don't know how she did that. That was hurtful.
Am I supposed to turn it off because.

Speaker 1 (19:31):
It's just because just because Santa is already in the
sky doesn't mean he's not watching what you You still
have to be nice. He's watching for next year.

Speaker 2 (19:44):
I gave up on that.

Speaker 1 (19:45):
You No, sounds like somebody is feeling a little grinchy.

Speaker 4 (19:51):
Well, that guy just took a giant, steaming turd on
the show. It wasn't about our show. That was about him. Okay,
you know what I mean. He's just unhappy. Okay, I
bet you he's still going to listen though, say a
prayer for him right now. Yeah, a good one or
a bad one? A good one, okay, I will in
the break.

Speaker 1 (20:11):
Do you say bad prayers for people?

Speaker 4 (20:13):
In precatory prayers, they're called really yes.

Speaker 1 (20:16):
That sounds like black magic.

Speaker 2 (20:18):
It's probably not a great idea. You don't want to
get into that business.

Speaker 1 (20:20):
But uhatory, How do you know the name for it?
Because I practiced, you have, you have, you have? You've
set a bad prayer for someone I didn't know that was.

Speaker 6 (20:32):
I'm not proud of it.

Speaker 2 (20:34):
I think everybody's probably thought some things like that. It's like,
do you Jesus please give them a hangover? Yes? Thank
you am.

Speaker 1 (20:41):
Exactly, Ai says. An impregatory prayer is a fervent plea
for God to bring judgment, destruction, or curses upon one's
enemies or evil doors, found predominantly in psalms like one
seven and other biblical texts, expressing deep christ for justice
against injustice, so often viewed with caution and Christian practice

(21:03):
due to the New Testament see this is Old Testament
crazy s Yeah, yeah, before Jesus gets here and everything's cool.

Speaker 2 (21:13):
One way to put it. You just nailed it all.

Speaker 1 (21:15):
Right, Well, Jesus getting here tomorrow, so you get get
your impregatory prayers out of the way.

Speaker 2 (21:20):
Gary and Shannon will continue.

Speaker 6 (21:23):
You're listening to Gary and Shannon on demand from KFI
AM six forty.

Speaker 2 (21:32):
Okay, Christmas Carol comes along, Yes, probably not like eleven thirty.

Speaker 4 (21:35):
I think as well, we do get everybody that. I
think the call sheet says eleven thirty. We'll see exactly
when you know, people and their limos arrive.

Speaker 8 (21:43):
That miserable who called in and said don't do the
Christmas Show and he donate money, His money's probably all
spent on booze from last night.

Speaker 2 (21:51):
The guy is totally off his rupper.

Speaker 8 (21:52):
I love the Christmas Show and I've been looking forward
to it, But that dude not know that Gary is
an adult theater star who wants say the Baby, and
Shannon Chargers Barrett is going to be on a Deborah.
I mean, this is a cast of all stars who
took the day that they were supposed to have off
to come in and do this play.

Speaker 2 (22:09):
Dude, get a live play the show. Let's go. Yeah,
let's go.

Speaker 4 (22:13):
I love that on a guy right Christmas Eve too?

Speaker 1 (22:19):
Yeah, I like him.

Speaker 2 (22:20):
Let us know what you're.

Speaker 4 (22:21):
Doing on Christmas e if you can send us a
talk back when you're listening on the app as you're
wrapping presents or baking or cooking or driving or whatever
it is. Just hit that red button white microphone lets
us know what you're doing right now for Christmas.

Speaker 9 (22:33):
Good morning, Gary and Shannon, thank you for working today.
Just want to say about heated rivalry. I just heard
you guys talking about it. One of the guys in
At the Blonde, the head guy. He his name's Connor
in real life, he's my daughter's best friend growing up,
and I knew he was gay before he did. Oh,

(22:56):
he's amazing. He's been acting for a long time and
he really deserves this break.

Speaker 2 (23:01):
So yeah, it's a great period. You watched the trailer,
I was looking out over your shoulder. I didn't. I
didn't recognize that.

Speaker 1 (23:06):
I watched the first episode yesterday, so yeah, I enjoyed it.
And he's great. He's a great actor. I didn't know
he was gay except for you know, he's in the
movie where he hooks up with another guy. But uh, strake,
I could do that right, Probably not. There was a
lot that went on in that first episode. I don't
think a straight guy would do that, not even for

(23:26):
the role. I mean, I wouldn't do that with a
woman for a role.

Speaker 2 (23:31):
What did they pay? That makes it worse? Never mind,
I just I heard that. Still know, it's still a
note for me. I get it.

Speaker 6 (23:38):
I'm jery and I put curse prayers on people that
laugh at me.

Speaker 2 (23:47):
Okay.

Speaker 4 (23:47):
Also on Christmas Eve? Okay, I didn't say I was
going to. In fact, I said I wasn't going to.
Didn't I say that I was not gonna.

Speaker 1 (23:55):
Psalms thirty five fifty nine sixte thirty seven. That's where
you can find an imprecatory prayer. Here's an example. Break
the teeth in their mouths, Oh God, or pour out
your wrath upon them. God doesn't act like that. Like that,

(24:16):
God doesn't respond to that kind of stuff. Well, God
had a lot of stuff up his sleeve. Old Testament God, Yeah, different,
it was rough. So what's the big chance? I mean,
I understand, Jesus, sometimes when you have a kid, your
whole life changes, your whole outlook on life changes. Is
that what happened with God? As you understand the Bible, I.

Speaker 2 (24:38):
Would say it like this. There were a set of rules,
and they kept breaking the rules, and God was like, Okay,
let's try it again.

Speaker 4 (24:48):
And then they kept breaking the rules. Okay, let's try
it again. Break the rules, break the rules, break the rules,
break the rules. Finally, Jesus comes and goes, I've followed
all the rules for you. Therefore I have fulfilled the covenant.
Don't worry about it now. It's not to say that

(25:09):
you're not so you're not. Still, you know, nice to
people and do the nice things, et cetera. It's that
the covenant, these rules, these things that people would do
to try to get closer to God, would never get
them closer to God. So Jesus comes fulfills the covenant, says,
I am the truth.

Speaker 2 (25:27):
Why are we do this? Is no, you're making it
very understandable for me. Uh. The only way through to
the Father is through me? Is what he says? And
does that believe in You believe in Jesus.

Speaker 1 (25:40):
Then you believe in God, and you're more likely to
follow the rules.

Speaker 4 (25:43):
No, if you do believe in him, you will follow
the rules. Ah, more likely to. I mean, I'll say this,
that's probably a better your characterization is probably better. If
you do believe in him, you're more likely to we
will all fall short, right because we're human. Yes, But
as long as you acknowledge that and say I'm going
to do better, I'll try to do better.

Speaker 2 (26:04):
I'll try it. That's the that's the process.

Speaker 1 (26:07):
So because Jesus was kind of the embodiment of what
God wanted us to do and he came, it made
people believe in God more and.

Speaker 2 (26:14):
Try to act right.

Speaker 1 (26:18):
Put it okay, all right, it's all it's all fine,
it's all good, right, I mean, it's all all good, okay.

Speaker 4 (26:25):
I mean I'm not the one to ask necessarily, i'd
be I've an imperfect message.

Speaker 1 (26:29):
Christmas Eve Mass can be a long one in some places.

Speaker 2 (26:33):
Catholic masses are.

Speaker 1 (26:34):
Always awfully long on Christmas Eve. I mean, I remember
Christmas Eve Mass is last in a couple hours. I
went to a few hours and the singing and the
singing is not I've been very good.

Speaker 4 (26:49):
One of my dad's friends from work got his daughter
got married.

Speaker 5 (26:53):
She was.

Speaker 4 (26:56):
My dad's friend at work, was born in China, married
to a Chinese woman. Their daughter's Chinese American. The family
came from China for this wedding Catholic wedding. So not
only did they do a Catholic wedding, which Catholic Chinese,
Catholic Chinese wedding, which was translated into both languages.

Speaker 2 (27:14):
But beautiful.

Speaker 4 (27:15):
I bet I'm still at that wedding. I was eleven
when I got there. I'm still there. That's how long
that went.

Speaker 1 (27:21):
Yeah, I get it, I get it all. I had
this rule for my wedding. I think Steve Gregory timed it.
I wanted the ceremony to be five minutes because you
know me, you kept your purse on your shoulder the
whole exactly. I am like, I have no patience for
that kind of ceremony.

Speaker 2 (27:38):
Christmas Eve show me.

Speaker 1 (27:39):
I think it was five minutes and thirty seven seconds
in and out and everyone had a drink.

Speaker 2 (27:47):
That's the way you do a wedding at a hotel. Yeah,
you really wouldn't do that in church. I don't think
this is the community.

Speaker 1 (27:53):
Is it?

Speaker 4 (27:54):
God?

Speaker 2 (27:54):
Wherever you are? I suppose Gary and Channon will continue
right after this. You've been listening to The Gary and
Shannon Show.
